An interesting parallel between Purim and parashah Tzav...
In the same way that we give Mishloach Manot to everybody so that we cover up the embarrassment of the individual to whom we give Matanot L'evyonim, so too in the mishkan and Beit Hamikdash, the place for the korban chatat (son offering) was in the same place as the korban ola (elevation offering). In this way we don't single out the individual with embarassment for his sins and he can repent in public in anonymity.
